As Real As Possible

The courage to be your truest self can be hard to come by, but being YOU is what fills life with experiences--difficult, hopeful, heartbreaking, rejuvenating--that grow us into wholeness. Join Christina Barry, theology teacher, life coach, wife, mom, friend, and spiritual guide, as she seeks each week to live her most authentic self and reflects honestly on the ups and downs of being as real as possible. Each episode will share with you real stories from Christina's life and then prompt you to reflect on your own life: how are you living authentically in your relationships, your work, your self, your goals, and your soul? As she shares and prompts you to personal reflection and growth, Christina has two goals for her podcast: to inspire you to be as real as possible, because the world needs who you really are, and to reassure you that who you are is deeply good and worthy of love. Pay attention to the inner workings of your soul. Begin to notice what is life-giving to you and what is life-draining to you. Attend to the goodness inherent in your deepest self, and start to LIVE it. Live as real as possible. The world needs who you really are. #personalgrowth #selfhelp #family #parenting #God #growth #prayer #lifechanges #gratitude #joy #lifecoaching #youngadults

As Real As Possible

The Psychology of Blessings

February 09, 2023 • Christina Barry • Season 1 • Episode 14

Count your blessings, even--especially--when things are hard.
Notice the good things around you, regardless of circumstances. It is possible to have joy, and cultivate it, in all circumstances. My story and a practical spirituality exercise to help you live in gratitude, steeped in joy, regardless of what's going on around you. This practice helped me out of depression, helps my kids and family love our life, has been researched by psychologists, and has been an exhortation in all the world's major religions for thousands of years.

Something we might all want to check out. :)
